Part I: Men's PTPY

As promised, all the news, views and shots from PTPY.

Kuan Yang: Having played floorball thrice a week, the body feels uneasy when both state and club training is suspended due to unavailabilty of the court. It was a rare day off (to be) until the organisers of PTPY rang up and said they needed another few players to form a full group of 6. A floorball family member asking a favour... ok la.. help la.

With the help of Moy, we managed to fill the gap and form another new group with the overwhelming support from people like Nick and friends, Wayne and Lawren. Thanks.

Game day itself was pretty exciting with the "Little League" in action with the kids swinging their sticks around and the parents yelling and urging the kids on.


As for myself, after cruising through the qualifying round, I didn't expect the semis to be so darn tough. I think this goes to the other players, organisers and spectators as well. The norm goes by where the top 3 leaders will be decided within 3 games with penalties to decide those undivided by points and goal difference. However, 3 draws in 3 games, it was impossible to separate the 6 of us and the organisers decided to reshuffle us into another 3 combinations and played another 3 games. With poor luck, lack of focus and fatigue, I manage to surrender a qualifying change to the opponent.


A mixed feeling. Slightly disappointed, not qualifying for the finals after 6 hard fought games and at the same time relief I can finaly rest. Phew~ My soul wanted to but my body refused, hence Phew~ became Ouch~ and I get to relive that moment everytime I browse Minden's Blog, seeing that photo yang memper-siasui-kan. Haizzz.

p/s: Thanks for those who responded and those who attended PTPY. And a great pat on Kenny's shoulder for a wonderful performances for bagging so many goals including a hattrick!! And double pat on Pei Li for winning the women's category as well. =)
And finally... (this one's for you, Kuan Yang!)
